How Listings Work
Where Listings Come From
Many listings start from public business records, such as Nevada State Contractors Board license data. Owners can also add a business that isn't listed yet. Until an owner claims it, a listing shows only the public details we have.
Adding or Claiming a Listing
Owners start on the Add Your Business page. As you type the name and phone number, we look for a listing that's already here and offer to let you claim it, so you don't end up with two.
To confirm you run the business, we use one of these:
- An email address at your business website's domain.
- An email address published on your business website.
- A document that shows you run the business, reviewed by a person. Documents are kept private.
Once it's yours, you can update contact details, hours, areas served, services, photos and answers to common questions from your dashboard.
Who Can Be Listed
Business Near Me lists local businesses that serve the public. We don't list:
- Adult or sexual services
- Cannabis, hemp, vape or kratom businesses
- Gambling businesses
- High-risk money services
- Psychic or fortune-telling services
- Marketing, advertising or web design companies
The details are in our terms. We decide this by the type of business, never by who owns it.
Reviews
Reviews come from people who confirmed their email address, and they follow our Review Policy. Owners can reply to reviews and report ones that break the rules, but can't edit or delete them.
Closed or Wrong Listings
If a listing nobody has claimed is closed or wrong, use the Request Removal link on that listing. Owners can fix their own listing after claiming it.
Paid Profile
Listing is free. A Paid Profile is $29 a month or $290 a year and adds:
- Top placement, labeled Premium Profile, in your category and neighborhood pages
- A quote request form on your profile
- Instant email alerts for new quote requests
- A leads inbox in your dashboard
Paid placement is always labeled, and it has no effect on reviews or ratings. Owners can upgrade from their dashboard after claiming a listing.
$299 Business Websites
We build a one-page website for your business for $299, using the details from your listing, then host and look after it for $29 a month on a 12-month term. Owners choose a design and order it from their dashboard after claiming a listing. See the templates and the full price on Business Websites.
